\"Stephen<\/p>\n

On\u00a0August 24<\/span>, The Marley Family, Island Records, and UMe will collectively proclaim the sun is shining in celebration of 40 years of\u00a0Kaya<\/i>,\u00a0Bob Marley<\/span>\u00a0& The Wailers’ historic\u00a0March 1978<\/span>\u00a0release. This most special anniversary edition will feature Stephen “Ragga” Marley’s exciting and vibrant new “Kaya 40<\/a>” mixes of all ten tracks from the original album alongside its original mixes in 2CD and 180-gram 2LP configurations.<\/p>\n

(The digital version will be a standalone release of Stephen’s mixes only.) The album will also be available as a limited edition 180-gram 2LP green vinyl version exclusively at\u00a0BobMarley.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Recorded in\u00a0London<\/span>\u00a0concurrently with the material that ultimately comprised 1977’s\u00a0Exodus<\/i>\u00a0\u2014 a record proclaimed by Time Magazine in 1999 to be the Best Album of the 20th Century \u2014\u00a0Kaya<\/i>\u00a0is the perfect sonic-sibling bookend that shares all the joy, spirit, and literal DNA of some of Marley’s most groundbreaking material.\u00a0Kaya<\/i>\u00a0contains a number of the most enduring, heartfelt songs in the entire Marley canon, including “Is This Love,” “Easy Skanking,” and “Sun Is Shining.”<\/p>\n

Kaya<\/i>\u00a0was initially released just one month ahead of\u00a0Bob Marley<\/span>\u00a0& The Wailers headlining the legendary One Love Peace Concert at The National Stadium in\u00a0Kingston, Jamaica<\/span>\u00a0on\u00a0April 22, 1978<\/span>, an event that featured 16 of reggae’s biggest acts.<\/p>\n

One Love Peace<\/span>\u00a0was heralded as Marley’s triumphant return to his native soil, following his long exile in\u00a0London<\/span>\u00a0after having fled the country as a result of a\u00a0December 1976<\/span>\u00a0assassination attempt at his\u00a0Kingston<\/span>\u00a0homestead.<\/p>\n

The album was recorded with the then-new configuration of The Wailers that comprised brothers Carlton and Aston “Family Man” Barrett on drums and bass,\u00a0Tyrone Downie<\/span>\u00a0on keyboards, Alvin “Seeco”\u00a0Patterson<\/span>\u00a0on percussion, and the I Threes \u2014\u00a0Rita Marley<\/span>,\u00a0Marcia Griffiths<\/span>, and\u00a0Judy Mowatt<\/span>\u00a0\u2014 on backing vocals, along with newest member\u00a0Julian (Junior) Marvin<\/span>\u00a0on guitar.<\/p>\n

Two of\u00a0Kaya<\/i>‘s songs had previously appeared in different arrangements on 1971’s\u00a0Soul Revolution<\/i>\u00a0\u2014 the title track, and “Sun Is Shining.”<\/p>\n

Stephen’s goal in mixing\u00a0Kaya 40<\/i>\u00a0was to create a balance that drew heavily from the original versions. Using Bob’s vocals from demos from original Kaya sessions that were recorded at different tempos, Stephen synched the vocals with alternate takes and layered it over different instrumental arrangements.<\/p>\n

Stephen tried to keep the flavor as authentic as possible. To mix the album, he used a similarly minimal approach, basing his version heavily off the classic analog concepts they used in the 1970s.\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

Bob Marley’s<\/span>\u00a0artistic legacy forever endures, and the 40th anniversary edition of\u00a0Kaya<\/i>\u00a0only serves to reinforce just how much we all share the shelter of this special music.<\/p>\n
